It snowed but only a tiny bit... not enough to get excited about.

I love how the purple sort of gnaws at your attention. You sort of want to peer into the dim shadows around it but you can't look away.

Thank you Ron. This one was shot with my 50mm lens opened up to 1.4. It make edges blurry and the one spot of focus just perfect!

I love mine. It was cheap but I think that may be what I love about it. I use it a lot and it's on my camera now.

We had our first rain of the season last night, I guess Autumn is really here. I love this shot the way the vine wraps around and the texture, nicely done!!

myrnajacobs In reply to kayceeus [2009-10-13 18:15:52 +0000 UTC]

The vine is my favorite part! the little iron thing it's wrapped around is a butterfly... and it all works so nicely together. Thanks, sweetie!

There is nothing like autumn up here in Michigan... the mood changes along with the colors. Happy to hear you are doing better.

This is stunning. I wish I knew how to add textures. I tried, but I need to watch someone...or a really simple step by step example. I tried a tutorial someone sent, but...lol
Snow already, oh my.

myrnajacobs In reply to KarenFiore [2009-10-13 18:13:46 +0000 UTC]

Well, it didn't snow last night as predicted so we dodged the mid October bullet.

The texture thing is really pretty easy but you are right a nice tutorial would be helpful.. maybe in person or else one that is really really detailed.

I like the added texture of melancholy.

myrnajacobs In reply to liveaswedream [2009-10-13 03:27:47 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. The texture did give it an extra tug of melancholy...but it's pretty dreary in my part of the world right now anyway.

I'm in upstate NY, and while the colors are pretty nice right now, my brain isn't in the mood. I took the afternoon to go up to my sister's camp on a small lake, to pull the water pump out and drain the pipes, and it was so...devoid of happiness somehow. But Thanksgiving is not so far off...that's the best holiday of them all for me.

We are here in Michigan to close down the cottages and get vehicles set for winter. I have loved being in the chill air.. .despite the overcast and almost constant rain.

Thanksgiving will be with my family in California and it, like yours is the best of all.

What a difficult time, Steve. I know how it feels. When we moved my father, it broke my heart.
